Why do you report the obviously BS statements they make as fact? In the headline, even?! How is this supposed to be objective journalism? I mean, I’ve been in many rooms full of PhDs and I don’t even know what that means!

They’re welcome to visit to take in the great views and enjoy the incredible restaurants we have. But they won’t be taking anyone home with them, or out of the state.

If you don’t have both KD and KD’s burner account, can you even consider yourself a viable platform?!

I can say objectively that Penn State students are bad people who do bad things.

Thank you! This comment always pisses me off. It’s just so demeaning of the kids. They’re smart, they understand more than people give them credit for, and they’re gonna try to use what they understand!

I genuinely think it is far past time to treat any republican claim to power in the same way. The party's hold on public space is illegitimate; it has delegitimized itself through deliberate sabotage of the public good and deliberate immiseration of the people, for the sake of bigotry and greed.

Yeah, I see the problem as being that the right wing solution feeds straight into the self-reinforcing grievance machine that coddles their cognitive dissonance and it’s hard to counteract that with a β€œit’s not her, it’s you,” message that a lot of dudes desperately need to hear.

My flight tonight was delayed because the catering cart didn't have enough trays for the meals for the first class passengers.

It felt like an apt illustration of the lengths to which this country will go to appease people with wealth.

Thanks Prof Franks! I’ve certainly been pleased with what I’ve discovered. And, while they’re all very good, yours may have been the most impactful. It’s not often somebody helps provide a framework to inform something you’ve been feeling for a while, but have taken for granted wasn’t possible.
